Princesslettuce no longer engaged

So no marriage for me. Turns out princelettuce was a first-rate a-hole who was having second thoughts about our relationship. I did something awful- I read his gchat convo with his best friend. But in this conversation, he told his friend that there were superficial reasons he had trouble committing like “she has thick ankles, her face is full, she has a thin frame but not “slender.” I’m a size 4, 5’8 130 lbs.

He also told his friend that he wasn’t sure if he could be happy for a lifetime bc little things about me still annoy him- like I’m spacey and can’t tie knots (seriously!) I confronted him about it and he confessed that he thought we had run our course.

So. Now I’m back in my apartment crying my eyes out and waiting for my sister to come over.

@princesslettuce14: Oh man. I am really sorry things didn’t work out, but it sounds like you dodged a bullet! He sounds like a complete douche with unrealistic expectations. I hope you feel better about this soon!

@princesslettuce14: don’t waste your tears love. If he is really sooo immature to let stupid petty things bother him to such a degree then he is not worth your time. Honestly a person like that will never be happy as even models have flaws. What bullshit. My heart goes out to you

This (very slightly) reminds me of my ex-boyfriend… I’ll never forget when he told me he didn’t know how he would react to me getting pregnant, because he didn’t “think pregnant women are attractive.” I am soooooo happy I (as PPs said) dodged that bullet. My current fiance told me he can’t wait to have children with me and that he thinks pregnant women are beautiful (as he should)!!

That being said, I am so, so sorry that you’re going through this. You know it’s gonna hurt and be hard for a while, but you are so much better off without him… and from the wording of your original post, I know you know that.

YOU WILL GET THROUGH THIS.

Oh, and no matter what this asshole thinks, you are beautiful, no matter your measurements, how bloated you are one day, or no matter how “thick” a pair of shoes might make your ankles look.

What a douchelord.

Now, years down the road when you’re happy with someone (and he’s not), PLEASE make it a point to take a photo with some bangin’ heels on–zoomed into your ankles–on your wedding day 😉

I am SO sorry you’re going through this. This guys sounds like a narccisistic commitment-phobe… seriously- thick ankles and can’t tie nots. I’m glad even in your emotional state you can see how ridiculous this is. Hugs!

There is definitely something very deeply wrong with him and something way more going on. He likely hates that he can’t tie his own ties and that his penis is too small to satisfy you. So instead, he takes it out on you and says you can’t tie knots and your ankles are too thick. Honestly, I don’t think my FI even knows what my ankles look like. He certainly isn’t looking there!! I’m sorry that he’s not only such a douchebag, but that he’s ended a relationship over reasons that are weird, superficial and immature. I hope his future wife gets pregnant and ends up with the fattest cankles in the world. Sorry, hun. *hug*
